Things to do in Your Car This Summer
Summer is here, and it is the perfect season to drive around in the car and enjoy yourself with your family. Activities, road trips, and drive-in movies are all parts of the summer fun for Phoenix residents. There are several things you can do in the car to make the most of the longer days.
Phoenix is a beautiful city, and you can enjoy a lot of scenic landscapes, historic towns, and other attractions in Arizona by a day trip in the car. Here are some things to do in the car to make the summer memorable for yourself and family:
First, ready the car
The first thing to do this summer is to ensure that the car is clean and ready for all the fun. Wash the vehicle, scrub it down, check the tire pressure, recharge the A/C if needed, rid the car of unwanted stuff, and inspect it to ensure that all the parts are functioning well. Your vehicle will be ready for you to enjoy the warm summer days.
Drive-in movies
With pandemic around and social distancing at the forefront, the entertainment scene around the world is changing. Phoenix is witnessing a sudden resurgence in popularity of drive-in movie theatres for people missing the big-screen movie experience. In the Covid-19 era, nothing is better than being out of the house to enjoy a movie with popcorn and snacks for relaxed family fun, and yes--right from the comfort of the car. Due to the closing of traditional theatres, drive-in screens are popping up across the country, showcasing classics, family movies, blockbusters, and new releases. Walmart is also working with Tribeca enterprise is transforming 160 of its parking lots across the country to contact-free drive-in movie theatres, beginning this August. Car side popcorn and drinks service will complete the experience.
Day trips
Day picnics and weekend getaways are the best way to enjoy the natural beauty, and Phoenix has it in abundance. Venture out and take a scenic drive to some of the best places around the city. Our recommendations include Grand Canyon, Sedona, Flagstaff, Canyon Lake, Saguaro National Park, Jerome, Tortilla flat, Prescott, The Apache Trail, Saguaro Lake, Verde Canyon Railroad, and Summer haven. Pack some food items that won't create a big mess in the car. If you feel like you're missing all the travel fun, take out the car, and drive to any of these amazingly beautiful places.
Camping
Antelope Canyon
If you are looking for a break from the city, there are several campgrounds in the mountains you can drive to a few hours away from Phoenix. So, pack your tent, grab the flashlights, fill coolers with beer and food, hop in the car, and head out for an adventurous weekend amidst nature to escape the summer heat with your family. Some of the best camping areas include Monument Valley, Patagonia Lake State Park, Christopher Creek, Wood Canyon Lake, Lost Dutchman State Park, or even Lake Pleasant.
Sleepover
If you are reluctant to go out, then a car sleepover with the family is a pretty enjoyable activity. Put the seats down, get sleeping bags, blankets, pillows, play some games, and enjoy.
Summer is the season where your car will be out the most. Make sure to keep it in the best shape and make the most of the season.
